A Star Is Born: 1 line verdict ×1

  1. verdict (verdict): First Man → A Star Is Born. Should have been First Man for sound editing and A Star Is Born for sound mixing, not Bohemian Rhapsody for both.
    “it should be 1st man for, uh, sound editing and a star is born for sound mixing”
    The Big Picture · Oscars 2019: Instant Reactions to ‘Green Book’ and the Two Warring Academies | The Oscars Show (Ep. 131) · 0:50:36 · unknown (0.40 sure it was them)

Avengers: Infinity War: 1 line industry ×1

  1. industry (industry): First Man → Avengers: Infinity War. First Man won visual effects because the most high-toned action movie nominated for best picture tends to win the category.
    “basically the most high toned action movie that is also nominated for best picture tends to win.”
    The Big Picture · Oscars 2019: Instant Reactions to ‘Green Book’ and the Two Warring Academies | The Oscars Show (Ep. 131) · 0:48:03 · Sean Fennessey (0.40 sure it was them)

Bohemian Rhapsody: 1 line industry ×1

  1. industry (industry): Bohemian Rhapsody → First Man. Bohemian Rhapsody on the PGA list comes at the expense of films like First Man, which is gone.
    “Like 1st man is gone.”
    The Big Picture · Instant Reactions to a Truly Ludicrous Golden Globes | The Oscars Show (Ep. 115) · 0:16:00 · Amanda Dobbins (0.50 sure it was them)

Damien Chazelle: 1 line theme ×1

  1. theme (recurring theme): Damien Chazelle → First Man. Chazelle's recurring theme of people who touch greatness and then lose it runs through La La Land and First Man as well as Babylon.
    “That's what La La Land is about. If you look at the end of that movie, that's what 1st man is about.”
    The Big Picture · The ‘Babylon’ Watch-Along · 1:59:49 · unknown (0.30 sure it was them)

Long Shot: 1 line industry ×1

  1. industry (industry): Long Shot → First Man. A political controversy did not help First Man, so a Trump spat would not have rescued Long Shot.
    “That didn't work for 1st man though.”
    The Big Picture · The Future of ‘Star Wars,’ Marvel, Pixar, and Disney’s Movie Monopoly. Plus: Our Summer Movie Awards and Paul Downs Colaizzo on ‘Brittany Runs a Marathon’ | The Big Picture · 0:39:23 · Amanda Dobbins (0.40 sure it was them)
